A deeply penetrating probe has liberals screaming and howling in rage. Todd Rokita, the attorney general for Indiana, is equally furious with BLM and warns their shaky “house of cards” is about to collapse. It’s already been officially condemned. That’s why Black Lives Matter™ “shut down all of its fundraising websites late Wednesday afternoon.”
Financial transparency probe
The probe into who’s responsible for the bank accounts seems to have prompted a social-media blackout which occurred “as BLM was forbidden to collect donations in California and Washington due to its ‘lack of financial transparency,‘ but reportedly continued to do so.”
AG Rokita considers Black Lives Matter an “illegal enterprise” which is “following a typical pattern of financial scheming.” As Rokita pointed out, “it appears that the house of cards may be falling, and this happens eventually with nearly every scam, scheme, or illegal enterprise.”
The republican state prosecutor isn’t blind. He doesn’t need a finance probe to read the writing on the wall. “I see patterns that scams kind of universally take: failure to provide board members, failure to provide even executive directors, failure to make your filings available. It all leads to suspicion.”
Playing his own cards close to the vest, he “would not confirm if Indiana is investigating BLM.” He did, however, note reports about BLM’s undisclosed finances “certainly cause us to be concerned.”
It appears California has a probe of their own.
Rokita’s remarks “followed a letter from California Department of Justice threatening that BLM leaders could be held personally liable if they fail to disclose financial records about the charity’s $60 million in donations within the next 60 days.”
Lack of transparency
The Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation bank accounts are so murky that Washington state ordered the social justice group to “immediately cease” collecting cash in the state over alleged “lack of financial transparency.” The California Department of Justice told the press, that BLMGNF “is prohibited from soliciting donations so long as its status is listed as delinquent.”
They’re still taking in money and “could face fines upwards of $2,000 for each contribution received while being out of compliance” when the probe gets done.
One supporter in Washington state confirms “he was able to donate $1 to the group on Monday.” A reporter in California “was able to make a $1 donation Wednesday.” Give a dollar, cost them 2,000. Where can I send one? This probe really did produce results.
“Insiders also allege BLM’s charity registration is out of compliance in Connecticut, Maine, Maryland, New Jersey, North Carolina and Virginia.”
The federal DOJ seems to have a probe going too. They “requested a copy of BLM’s annual registration renewal fee report and its 2020 IRS tax forms within two months time.” That could be tricky since nobody wants to admit being in charge.
“If the organization fails to submit these documents, its charity exemption status will be revoked.” It could also “face fines for each month or partial month for which the report(s) are delinquent.“
